Today is the first official day of spring break! I am so excited to have some time off. It is much needed. I have a list a mile long of things that I need to do that I have been neglecting, like renew my passport. I am dreading that. I also made it my goal to cook and bake a lot so I have new recipes to share! I am planning on blogging a lot more too.

I started my break off by doing taxes and going to the dentist. My dentist is the nicest man in the world, but I still really hate going. I have to go back next week to get more work done.

I’ll tell you what I won’t be eating today after my dentist visit – carrots. This dip is so perfect for carrots though. One of my best friends from college showed me how to make this dip and I have been making it ever since. It is the perfect recipe to bring to a party or serve as an appetizer. It won’t fill people up, but it is really tasty. Definitely make this for your next event or to just celebrate the fact that it is spring break!

In a microwavable bowl cook the spinach until it is thawed.
